Simplest way would be to user @SYS$STARTUP:UCX$CONFIG

and select option 1 then option for interfaces.

Can you say what the result of UCX SHOW VERS
is so version specific help can be given.

Hi,

To change the IP address and other TCPIP related things on you VMS system, use command procedure sys$manager:ucx$config.com.

$@sys$manager:ucx$config.com

This is menu driven command procedure, so to set the IP address of your system , choose option 1 ( core environment ) and then option 4 (interface ) . For more help, refer tcpip manual.

HTH,
Best regards,

... and don't forget restart TCP/IP suite using:
$@SYS$MANAGER:UCX$SHUTDOWN
$@SYS$MANAGER:UCX$STARTUP
or using option in UCX$CONFIG.

Bye

I may be going down the wrong road here, but to remove a node from UCX you type:
UCX SET NOHOST nodename
This will take out any reference to the node.
To put back in, type:
UCX SET HOST nodename (uppercase) /ALIAS="nodename" (lower case)
/ADDRESS=ip_address
Hope this helps.
